Eel Creek Campground is praised for its beautiful setting, with a unique blend of forest and sand dunes, offering spacious, private campsites and well-maintained facilities. The camp host, Rick, is frequently highlighted for his helpfulness and friendliness, contributing significantly to guests' positive experiences. While some visitors noted minor issues like bathroom distance and noise from garbage collection, the overall sentiment is one of enjoyment and appreciation for the campground's peaceful atmosphere and access to nature.

The trail from the campground to the beach is challenging but well worth it and the restrooms are clean and anti-bacterial soap was supplied until one of the other campers stole it. What's the matter with people?
The campsites are too close together so when late arrivals come and reserve on their phones while not being able to see what's around them and evidently not being able to determine on the app that they are crowding into an area it becomes more of a trailer park experience than camping. Again, what's the matter with people to crowd into one spot while leaving other areas vacant. Not having sites so close together would alleviate this problem. Finally the $8 reservation fee is too much, 2-3 dollars would be make more sense.

Love this campground. We've been coming here for many years and it's a favorite of ours. Love the nearby lakes, beautiful trails and setting of the campsites. Host is unobtrusive yet friendly in communication. Restrooms clean and safe feeling.

Otherwise this is a great campsite- our first campsite was quite trashy- we were able to switch campsites surprisingly easily by calling recreation.gov and we really enjoyed this site. Many of the sites are well secluded and the bathrooms were clean although missing soap. Great location next to the John Dellenback Trail which we highly recommend! Amazing experience hiking the sand dunes and coastal woods/ brush and getting time on the isolated piece of beach.

We love camping at Eel Creek. Our last visit had a vehicle in our spot. After waiting and looking for the person we left to return our trailer to its storage (1/2) hr.) before closing. The camp host was off duty each time we checked. We could not gain access to our reservation. The 1st two times, the men's bathroom was out of order and we had to drive to the restroom. Have tried to contact both by phone and online and problems everywhere.
